Kyoto Colors - Urban & Early Modern

Kitayama Street

Kitayama Street, located in the northern part of the city, shows a different side of Kyoto. Unlike mid-city, this area is less crowded with buildings and has a lot of greenery and even scattered vegetable fields. With cafes, restaurants, and boutiques housed in modern architecture dotting the street, the area is good for strolling. Located inside the green wall on the right is the Kyoto Botanical Garden.
